Latest Trends in Microfrontends
The world of frontend engineering is constantly evolving, and as we go about building microfrontends following the currently available tools, approaches, and best practices, it is important to keep an eye on the latest trends that are evolving in this space and keep exploring and experimenting with them to see how they can help us become more efficient and build better apps.
In this chapter, we will cover some trends that can influence how we build microfrontends in the future. Some of the trends we will explore are the following:
- The name microfrontends itself and what is a better term for it
- The island pattern of mixing static content with dynamic content
- Looking at other build tools beyond Webpack
- WebAssembly
- Cloud or edge functions
- How generative AI can influence our work
By the end of this chapter, we will have learned about the latest trends in the frontend engineering space that impact how we build microfrontends...
